Dr Chris Marshall

Early start on my way to Edinburgh for my first week @ITPEnergised as a Principal Consultant in Geology, Peat and Hydrology!

Palaeogene field team at Hollendarbukta. A combined effort searching for glendonites and trying to learn what coal geology can learn from modern wetlands. @UNISvalbard @TheRhodRecord @peatSAR

@JPRitson @MikePeacock86 These have been great for @marginswebber PhD on peatland margins. For such a simple techniques really shows a lot of variation over a short distance.

If you are at #EGU23. My talk is today at 10:45 in room G1. I’ll show our work towards understanding terrestrial and near coastal response to climate change in a warm Arctic.

Chris Marshall (@peatSAR) peatland scientist at ERI will be talking with artist Sekai Machache about their peatland experiences and the relationship between people, science and art in @TheFlowCountry April 19th 5:15pm @ThinkUHI @UHIPressOffice @UHI_NH eventbrite.co.uk/e/looking-nort…

Great day for @ERI_UHI @UHI_NH intern Candice to spend @PlantlifeScot Munsary Reserve learning peatland monitoring techniques!

@ScootJD Great use of a flow country pic!

Fun morning discussing the importance of peatlands to over 100 A-Level students. Best question was “can I build a peatland in my garden?” #PeatTwitter

Great to see that @HPSterk hard work in the field has produced this new paper. Especially enjoyed our fieldwork that summer in @TheFlowCountry!

This week our highlighted @ERI_UHI @UHI_NH @UHI_Research @ThinkUHI PhD Researcher from our Peatland Research Theme is Rob McHenry @RobMcHenry3 who is looking at the impact of peatland tracks from forestry and wind farms on peatland ecosystems! #peattwitter @RSPBScience @SSE

Today we are highlighting @ERI_UHI @UHI_NH @ThinkUHI PhD Researcher @LiamJGodwin who’s research shows how peatland restoration impacts water quality and river ecology including Salmon!

@Flowsresearch shows the carbon dynamics of near natural and degraded blanket bog @ERI_UHI @UHI_NH @UHI_Research peatland theme showcase!

Thanks to everyone who attended our @UHI_NH @UHI_Research @ERI_UHI peatland showcase last night! We will highlighting each speakers work each day for the next few weeks so stay tuned. First up an overview of blanket peatland from @peatSAR and @Flowsresearch! #peattwitter #peat

Our Peatland Research Theme are hosting a Research showcase and ask an expert event on 16th November 6-7pm GMT. The event will be hybrid with online tickets available at the link below. eventbrite.co.uk/e/ask-eri-peat… or come along in person to ERI Castle Street Thurso!

🚨PhD Opportunity🚨Wild about wetlands? ☑️ Totally into trees?☑️ Want to work with an awesome team?☑️ Come join us for a #PhD in the beautiful south west UK (@PlymUni) to work in @wetwoodlands - understudied yet really important carbon rich ecosystems! findaphd.com/phds/project/t…

Great chance for @PeatlandECR and PhD researchers to share tips and exchange knowledge in a friendly setting about all things peaty. Deadline coming up for abstracts and cheap registration! Doesn’t have to be about @TheFlowCountry anything #peat will be well received @peattwitter

Just a reminder that the registration and abstract submission for the Flow Country Research Conference: Celebrating 10 years of Research Hub is now open! Abstract Submission is due by 2/9/22 Come and join us in Thurso from October 25th-28th! eventbrite.co.uk/e/flow-country…

Great to host @RochefortLine in @TheFlowCountry week and show her @marginswebber PhD research on peatland margins on the beautiful @RSPBNorthScot Forsinard Knockfin Heights. She also managed to capture #bogdog Finn showing us how to do a veg survey! #peattwitter @UHI_Research

Line Rochefort visit in Scotland: impressive restoration of afforested blanket bogs in @TheFlowCountry led by Roxane Andersen and @RSPBNorthScot. After cutting trees, incorporating them into the peat and doing a more thorough job of blocking the ditches, Sphagnum is growing well!

Registration now open for flow country conference, great chance to get the peatland community together in the fabulous @TheFlowCountry! Looking forward to seeing what new research has happened over the last 5 years @PeatlandECR #peat #peatlands #peattwitter

New #peatpaper for #peattwitter showing how peatland surface motion by #insar can be used to indicate peat slide risk at sites across Ireland up to 24 months prior to failure mires-and-peat.net/pages/volumes/…
